Bing To Continue Support for Site Explorer If Sufficient Interest

June 8th, 2010 admin

Since Bing and Yahoo announced their intentions to work together there has been speculation on whether Bing would discontinue support for Site Explorer.

Site Explorer gives users an insight into the backlinks on any domain and is an important tool in the SEO workplace.

Sasi Pathasarathy, Program Manager for Microsoft’s Bing search engine announced at SMX that Bing would continue support for Site Explorer if users want it.

Lets hope enough people can persuade MS to continue support for this useful tool.
